    與其說是民宿,不如說是「旅社博物館」,老闆、老闆娘非常用心,保留其祖父原經營的新東亞大旅社,並以「家」為出發點經營,盡可能保留旅社樣貌及物品,像是可以看到大型的大同冷氣機、熱水器、回字結構、軟樓工法及精美的地磚等,而為提供更舒適的空間,將部分房間的隔間拆除,做出開放的公共空間,提供咖啡茶水等,讓旅人自由使用,可以在書櫃上挑一本書配著咖啡香慢慢閱讀,也可以散步累了坐在搖椅上放空。 房間乾淨舒適,但因為是老建築,隔音相對不佳,旅人需要注意音量,我們這次遇到的旅人素質都很高。民宿有太多值得值得細細品味的地方,且很多精彩故事,老闆及老闆娘都非常熱心,想體驗特色民宿的旅人,千萬別錯過!

    (Translated by Google) 4.5 stars It really has a historical origin, different from the old houses in the past, there is a serious boss who shares the history of the whole house, the changes of everyone and things in each period Although things are different, but it is a bonus for people who love such an atmosphere We stayed in a private room for 4 people this time, so the bathroom facilities have to go outside, so if we want to enjoy 4-star accommodation quality, the door is next to the door and walk slowly 😂 (Original) 4.5顆星啦真的是有歷史淵源,不同於以往的古宅的事,有個認真的老闆分享整個這個房子的歷史,每個時期每個人事物的變化 雖然物是人非,但是給愛這樣氛圍的人是很加分的 我們這次住的是雅房4人房,所以衛浴設備都是得去外面,所以想享受4星級的住宿品質,門口在旁邊慢走😂

    Awesome unexpected encounter (context below)! This is a beautiful and cozy old house more than 100 years old, owned by a nice and funny couple. It has a lot of history behind it (which the owners will be happy to share if you ask), as it was previously owned by the grandfather of the husband. There's a lot of antique furniture, devices (old desk-telephone, desk-turntable), relics (ventilation system, heating pump). This is not a typical hostel as the number of rooms are limited and come in various size and shapes. I slept in a 4-bed room (though I was the only one), and a couple slept in a different room which might have been a single-bed room. The feeling is also very different, as you are basically renting a house and have access to all the cool shared spaces like the living room and the kitchen (I don't know that you can actually use it to cook, but maybe). All in all, it's a much more unique experience than a hotel or regular hostel. You definitely feel like you have more autonomy than in any other place. The location is great as well, it's a 5-minute walk from the Train station. While it's near busy Chenggong street, it's located in a smaller lane so the surroundings are surprisingly quiet. You also have a nice view of the small streets from the windows. The owners are beyond nice and the price is fair. They don't run this place like a typical business, as I believe they are retired and do this partly out of passion. They seem to care about their tenants and enjoy talking with them. Don't go there if you have princess-like expectations about the service, go to a hotel instead. However, If you'd like a cozy, independant alternative with a warm and sincere human interaction with the staff, this is the place for you. All in all, one of the best accomodation I've ever experienced while traveling. Very unique place. Recommended if you like history. CONTEXT: I met the couple that owns this place at a vegetarian restaurant in downtown Tainan. They were sitting at the table next to me. At first, they seemed amused and intrigued at my interactions with the restaurant owner (using broken chinese). Next thing I know, we were having an awesome conversation in Chinese/English and the lady especially was joking a lot and asking many questions. As she was also a musician and a vegetarian, she was particularly intrigued. They said that they liked me and that they hoped I would stay at their hostel eventually. The next day, I was about to leave Tainan by train but I randomly decided to stay another night and called them (through the Information Center booth at the train station, since I don't own a phone)

    (Translated by Google) If you like the story of the old house, you will not be disappointed when you come here; looking forward to modern, it is retro and nostalgic, and the hardware equipment may not be able to meet everyone's expectations. time to sit down and have a good chat with each other Passengers are also requested to think more before making an appointment. Don’t be too harsh on the century-old house. The congenital conditions may be insufficient (soundproofing), but the acquired conditions are sufficient (enthusiastic homestay owners, old hostels with many stories), as long as you have time, homestay owners are very good. Willing to share the story of the old house, it is also worth savoring here ---- This time, I would like to thank the boss & the shopkeeper for helping to arrange the wishing room 201, which made this trip more warm. I will visit again if I have the opportunity, and I want to continue to listen to more stories. (Original) 喜歡老宅故事的,來這裡不會失望;期待現代的,這裡復古懷舊,硬體設備可能沒辦法滿足所有人期待,民宿主人堅持不在房間放入過多電器,希望來訪旅客拋開被3C綁架多時的時間,坐下來與彼此好好聊天 也請旅客們預約前,多考慮,別太苛責百年老宅,先天條件或許不足(隔音),但後天條件充足(熱情民宿主人、很多故事的老旅社),只要你有時間,民宿主人都非常樂意分享老宅故事,這裡也值得細細品味 ---- 本次感謝老闆&掌櫃,幫忙安排了許願的201房,讓這趟旅程多了更多溫暖,有機會會再回訪,想再繼續聽更多的故事

    地點完美,保留老房子原本的設計結構很有味道,喜歡舊物的人入住會很興奮,老闆解說仔細,唯一美中不足之處就是隔音不好

    充滿故事的旅社,很適合體內有著老靈魂的人~ 溫馨提醒:因響應環保,牙刷牙膏記得自己攜帶,比較淺眠的人可以用房間內民宿主人細心準備的耳塞! 古蹟保存不易,大家記得溫柔對待唷。

    (Translated by Google) The shopkeeper is very good and will introduce the overall facilities and history of the homestay. It is a very charming homestay. Although things are historical, the rooms are clean and tidy. It's very comfortable to live in. I really recommend that you must come to Tainan to live~ There are various room types, each with its own style and ingenuity, praise! What a fantastic place to go to, you can't miss out on this hostel :) (Original) 掌櫃人非常好,會介紹民宿整體設施,歷史。 是一家很有韻味的民宿,雖然東西具有歷史性,但房間乾淨整潔。住的很舒服,真心推薦來台南一定要來住~ 有各種不同的房型,每一間都有自己的風格與巧思,讚! What a fantastic place to go to, you can't miss out on this hostel:)

    (Translated by Google) Cost-effective CP value, a rare half-timbered building, can be organized into a comfortable, slow work and meticulous work, some rooms are still being repaired, it is expected, there are clues to the space riddles everywhere, it is definitely worth living for more than a day. When you come to Tainan, don’t just come to Tainan to be gluttonous, the accumulation of urban life, in the twists and turns of the layers, in the winding alleys, there is no need to go back and forth. The owner and his wife are very kind and enthusiastic. Be sure to seize the opportunity to slow down and chat with them about the family story of common people's history. At present, most of the long-term residents are foreign tourists from afar, and Taiwanese need to know the goods. I grew up in Tainan, I really hope it will always be there, continue to operate, and recommend it with my heart! (Original) 高性價比CP值,少見的半木造建築,還能整理成很舒適,慢工出細活,有些房間還在維護修整,令人期待,處處角落藏著空間謎語的線索,絕對值得住一天以上。 來台南不要只有貪吃美食,城市生活的沉積,在層層疊疊的轉折處,彎彎曲曲的巷弄中,才沒有白來一回。 屋主夫妻倆,很親切熱情。千萬要把握機會,放慢腳步和他們聊出庶民史的家族故事。 目前長住的多是遠來外國觀光客,台灣人要識貨啊。 我台南長大,好希望它能一直在,永續經營,用心推薦!

    外觀很有年代感進去是另一番天地 老闆們非常熱情親切 重點很好睡!!枕頭是我最大的要求 這枕頭真的好睡床也好睡 整體很舒服 雖說是老房子但陽光很足不陰森 老房子隔音不好但是晚上睡覺是沒遇到什麼吵鬧 外面也不吵 早上起床外面會有聲音但不至於很吵 房間採光非常好但窗簾比較透光可能需要眼罩 廁所用門簾擋著而已比較赤裸 吹風機很弱要吹很久 但整體很棒可以來住

  • 5/5 Zheyi Z. 4 years ago on Google • 81 reviews
    Highly recommend this hostel. The house is a living history of Tainan for the last 100 years. The owners are very nice, and will always help. It feels like home.

    This family owned and operated homestay is the one of the best travelers can get, friendly and very helpful I had a great time staying with them, always smiling!!! The location is central and easy to get to all the important spots in Tainan, from Confucius house to the first settlements in Taiwan. Highly recommended!!!

    (Translated by Google) The environment in the house is very clean and the bed is very soft and comfortable. Even if it is an old house, the overall impression is that it is retro and innovative to visitors, not old. It's a pity that I returned to the hotel because it was very late for two consecutive days. I didn't meet the owner and his wife. I hope to have the opportunity to stay again and listen to your stories about the old house! I highly recommend everyone to Tainan to come here to feel the atmosphere of Centennial Hostel. (Original) 屋內環境很乾淨,床也很軟很舒服。即使已經是老房子,整體還是給旅客的感覺是復古又創新,而不是老舊。 這次很可惜因為連續兩天都很晚才回旅社,都沒遇到老闆夫妻,希望有機會再來住宿,聽你們講老房子的故事!非常推薦大家來台南一定要來這裡感受百年旅社的氛圍。

    (Translated by Google) I really like the attitude of the boss The old house is renovated but the old is repaired The decoration is beautiful but not too commercial When there are few tourists on weekdays, there will be the illusion of mistakenly breaking into the house😆 (Original) 很喜歡老闆老闆娘經營的態度 老宅翻新卻以舊修舊 裝潢擺設很美卻沒有太多商業感 平日遊客較少的時候會有誤闖民宅的錯覺😆

    Eccentric interesting historical building to stay at hostel run by a local Taiwanese couple. Very friendly and welcoming. They even drove us to a local light festival and bought the guests free range chicken dinner. Certainly a memorable stay.

    (Translated by Google) In quaint Tainan, there is always no shortage of old-style homestays. New East Asia exudes a natural retro charm. The mouth-shaped corridor resounds with the friendly voice of the homestay owner, which adds a warm atmosphere to this retro style. The room is clean, and the large-scale lighting illuminates the softness of the old house. I like the different parquet tiles in every small corner, giving the space a different style and vitality. Every place must be savored carefully to be worthy of the rare encounter. Intriguing place to rest 🤍🤍🤍 (Original) 在古色古香的台南總是不乏老宅風格的民宿,新東亞散發混然天成的復古魅力讓人意猶未盡,口字型的迴廊響起民宿主人親切的聲音,也更為此復古增添溫暖氛圍。 房間乾淨,大面的採光點亮老宅的幽柔,最喜歡每一小角落不同的拼花磚,賦予空間不同風情和活力。每一處都要細細品味才不愧對難得相遇的緣分。 耐人尋味的好憩處🤍🤍🤍

    (Translated by Google) The location is good, the indoor environment is excellent, and the proprietress warmly explained the history of the old house. Overall, it is very good!! However, the living habits and standards of the other tenants who stayed on 10/9 really need to be improved. The hot water from the drinking machine is not replenished, and the unfinished instant noodle residue is directly poured into the sink, and the coffee outlet of the automatic coffee machine is stained with water. The oil in the instant noodle oil bag (dried meat noodles)?? Even if the coffee machine is used as the source of hot water for the drinking machine, it should be cleaned up if it is wrong?? It’s a bit outrageous (Original) 地點佳,室內環境優,老闆娘熱情解說老屋歷史,整體來說很不錯!! 不過10/9入住的其他間房客生活習慣&水準實在有待提升,開飲機熱水沒了不補水,沒吃完的泡麵渣直接倒洗手台,還把自動咖啡機的咖啡出口,沾滿泡麵油包的油(肉燥麵)?? 就算把咖啡機當成開飲機熱水來源就算了,搞錯了也應該清理一下吧?? 實在有點離譜

    (Translated by Google) The quaint century-old homestay. The owner and the proprietress are very enthusiastic. Before moving in, they will take us around the old house to introduce the history of each place. The room is also very comfortable. There are surprises in every corner of the house, and you can go anywhere. Great adventure (Original) 古色古香的百年老屋民宿,老闆跟老闆娘都很熱情,入住前還會帶我們繞一圈老屋,介紹每個地方的歷史,房間也很舒適,屋裡的每個角落都有驚喜,可以到處探險一番,很讚

    (Translated by Google) A hostel converted from an old hotel in Tainan If you like to experience the old Tainan style, it is very suitable to come here A hotel where experience is greater than comfort The bed is a bit hard, the water pressure is a bit low The curtains may be thinner for the sake of light transmission and beauty but wake up in the morning (Original) 台南老牌飯店改建的旅社 如果喜歡體驗老台南風情很適合來這 屬於體驗大於舒適的旅館 床有點硬,水壓有點小 窗簾可能為了透光美觀選比較薄的 但早上會被亮醒
